- Hi Andy,
-
- I've heard of the Tuba Christmas thingy. I just wish there was something
- like that in existence for us slushpump types.
-
- Almost every year, my teacher, Tom Ervin (at the University of Arizona,
- Tucson) has his "precollegiate trombone workshop." And what's neat is to
- see a couple hundred trombone players-- high school age and below! (with
- some baritones and some tubas too) all playing together. Some of the
- kids are so small that if you stand the horn on end, it's taller than
- they are.
-
- Didn't get a chance to do it this year, but some year I'd like to get
- some folks together and take my horn and go caroling.
-
- Have a happy New Year and ENJOY your music!
